Unknown Fate

  In A Nutshell 🔵 Pros + Atmospheric setting that blends well abstraction and reality. + Possibility of playing with or without VR. + Mysterious narrative with several hidden meanings and allegories. + Good voice acting and soundtrack. 🔴 Cons - Below average graphics lacking in detail, polishing and complexity. - Inconsistent quality of level design, ranging from good to poor. - Puzzles and combat are way too simple, posing basically zero engagement. - Presence of level-breaking and…

  These devs dont know what checkpoints are, so have fun starting the whole level again if something goes wrong.

  needs a lot more work, combat is like someone brought me to the 90s and if you ignore this and all the voice acting it can actually be interesting, plot is.. wierd to say the least. No audio sliders, no mouse cursor to select settings. Feels a bit rushed and some scenes are out of place, but some story concepts meshed well together!

  The twisted dreamlike world the game is set in is really good but unfortunately the mechanics of this game are poor so i'm not willing to support the game. 1.No options for anything. 2.No free locomotion or snap/smooth turning. 3.Poor support for the Oculus Rift touch. So a refund for me which is a shame as i would of liked to explore more.

  Reviewed using HTC Vive Pro Puzzle-Adventure take on the role of Richard, drawn into a surreal universe which contains strange characters and scenes resembling twisted versions of his own life - 4 Hours Gameplay ✔️ Gorgeous Graphics with Great Sound ✔️ Easy to Medium puzzle solve difficulty ❌Feel rushed with Teleport can't free roam 🙃 ❌ Wall clipping could use some fixing❗ https://youtu.be/t8UG3152gp8

  More like known fate First of all this game is available for both VR and non VR and I only played the non VR version. Between the music, sounds and linear paths with some secondary roads to get distracted it's easy to know what the structure of the game is, go here and there without knowing why, we will try to confuse you and tell you the truth at the very end. Not saying that this is bad, but is predictable. Gameplay Scenario The developers don't know who to change one scenario to other…

  I somewhat enjoyed this game, the graphics and sound was amazing but the game play was lack luster. The combat first of was un-enjoyable its right click then three left clicks and there is only 1 enemy that's more just there to fill in the space between the story cut scenes or the puzzles. The puzzles aren't overly hard the only thing I found difficult was clipping through the platforms you jump onto and the physics sometimes throwing you around. The story is enjoyable but also confusing.…

  The option for turning off motion blur is broken. I turned it off in the tutorial, but it returned in the next area. Since then I haven't been able to turn it off again, no matter what I try. It really ruins the game for me, and since I'm not playing it in VR it never did any good for immersion anyway. I was really looking forward to playing it, since it has such interesting character designs and an interesting concept. But I just can't play it, the motion blur makes me motion sick.

  6/10 Unfortunately, I just can't quite recommend Unknown Fate. There are absolutely some great aspects of the title, but in the end I regretted the time I spent with the game. It could most easily be described as a first-person puzzle platformer. It also can be played in VR, but I played it with a standard setup. You'll play as Richard, a man who finds himself in a strange, visually-bizarre world that seems to be constructed from his memories. You'll progress through the world by completing…

  Played the game for 30 minutes in VR first and about 20 minutes in Non-VR after that. I have not finished the game in that time, but I still wanted to write a Review. Pros: - Interesting, eerie Story - Nice voice acting - Well designed World - Playable with VR and Non-VR - 10 to 15 bucks is more than a fair price for the game! Cons: - VR-Version seems to be rushed over. Many of the details in the game and the story get presented much better in the Non-VR Version of the game. - Animation…

  I got this game after trying out another Indie game, Photonic Distress. I really wish I could set a score to the game here on steam instead of just recommending/not recommending... There are several things I found really nicely done in the game, but I had some major issues which made the game unplayable to me which is why I chose "not recommend". Pros: It really feels like a lot of effort was made to develop the game, the intro was absolutely fantastic and overall I think the visuals are…

  Unknown Fate, is a strange mix of differents genres. You have Puzzle Elements, some Platforming Elements, A little bit of Combat (which is not that difficult), with an Story Rich Adventure wrapped in a VR or non Vr envolope. The story to say is interesting, as you journey through different worlds trying to find out why you have lost your memory, which was left open at the end, possible for a squeal. The graphics i liked, simple in parts, but over flowing with detail in others, they also swapped…

  The game has really nice graphics and sounds. The puzzles were interesting but could have been much more difficult. It has an interesting story but I liked it. I recommend this.

  Honestly didnt know what to expect playing this but i was supprised how polished the graphics and flow of the game was. The voice acting was above average and the graphics were smooth, however when i got to close to objects i often had a lot of texture clipping. Puzzles were interesting but could have been much more complex as after doing the first few, it never felt really challenging. However the length of the game supprised me and i do plan to continue playing it.

  1st Impressions Video with Commentary! // Oculus Rift + Touch // GTX 1060 (6GB): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M6JCfKxjuDw My Thoughts: The game has not yet been optimised for the Rift. It's still playable but 50 mins into the game I came across a 'show stopping' puzzle, that so far can only be solved using the Vive wands. I also came across an area that was stuttering on my GTX 1060. But, bugs and issues aside I have to admit I really enjoyed the experience, the mystery, the locations and…

  It's fine, teetering on kinda bad. I was thinking about giving it a positive until it continued to show off its mediocrity for 4 gruesome hours. It gives lots of "first game" vibes, with pretty bad voice acting, whack cinematography, default graphics and clunky gameplay. The world is pretty cool, I guess? And it for sure has some great ideas and designs in a vaccuum, but the writing does them no justice. By the end I had fully turned off my brain and was just waiting for it to end. I…

  Unknown Fate is a surreal, story-focused first-person adventure that places atmosphere and symbolism at the forefront of its design. Developed by Marslit Games and published by Fulqrum Publishing, the game casts players as Richard, an ordinary man abruptly pulled from his familiar life into a fractured, dreamlike world that feels shaped as much by memory and emotion as by physical reality. From the opening moments, the experience establishes a tone of quiet unease and curiosity, inviting…

  This game is like that horrible b-movie that you catch a weekday during the afternoon, and that right from the get go, you know its gonna be mediocre, but, for some reason, you force yourself through it... Cursing my curiosity and warning you that you're not gonna get that 3-5h back, its not worth it, its just... bad.

  Disclaimer: I cannot provide anything regarding the VR experience. Very easy to 100% without a guide - Also, the game was a little bit of a mess. A unique, interesting, flawed mess. Using a controller for this game is not a great idea. You can certainly complete the game in a 4-5 hour window with one, but yeesh. Clearly its is mapped to mouse and keyboard control. Not so good there. So go KBM! (or VR?) The design of many of the characters and elements are very interesting. I believe this game…

  The game has nice graphics and a good vibe. I really enjoy the way you have to explore and all the roads forming and yeah, I would recommend it. Obviously it still has stuff to be worked on such as wierd texture glitches like floating leaves but in general very good! <3

  What it may lack in standard gameplay, Unknown Fate more than makes up for with an intriguing and easily immersible story that only slightly hinges upon the carrot-on-the-stick technique. Even without norms, its focus on puzzle-solving also attributes to the fun that could be had with this title. However, in its current state, there's work to be done: a lack of polish prevents it from being an altogether solid gaming scenario. Combined with shoddy voice acting and tricky physics, it's one to…
